Florida Lease Violation Notice — 7-Day Cure or Quit (Fla. Stat. § 83.56(2))

For lease violations other than non-payment, Florida requires a 7-day notice to cure or quit under Fla. Stat. § 83.56(2). Weekends and legal holidays are excluded from the 7-day count — the same rule as for the 3-day pay-or-quit notice.

Curable vs. Non-Curable Violations

7-day cure notice (§ 83.56(2)(b)): For violations the tenant can fix — unauthorized pet, unapproved occupant, lease compliance failures. Tenant has 7 days (excluding weekends and holidays) to remedy.

7-day unconditional quit (§ 83.56(2)(a)): For violations that cannot be remedied — criminal activity, intentional property damage, repeated violations within 12 months. Tenant has 7 days to vacate with no cure option.

What to Include

  • Tenant's name and address
  • Specific description of the violation
  • Whether it is curable or non-curable
  • For curable: what the tenant must do and by when
  • Date of service

Repeat Violations

If the same or similar violation occurs within 12 months of a prior notice, Florida law allows you to serve the unconditional 7-day quit notice without offering a cure opportunity.
